Default who out of the ford boys is in totb ?

who is representing the blue oval badge at this years totb ?
i think there is a point to be proven once and for all, no doubt we have the best tuners
just so sorry i cant be there, we have to do a show called ford fair
that show is all about fords
unlike totb which is all about japanese cars
lets prove them wrong this year lads, cheers nomad

hi mike nice to have a list of bhp, methinks there should be some european entrants with their 700+bhp,
deano already mark shead has been mentioned tuning jap cars for totb, he started out doing ford tuning, if he wasnt one of the best then i dont know why he would be fettling jap engines for an important event ? this is a "put your money where your mouth is " event, lets see what happens ?
some of the skylines have 1000 bhp but its all about power to weight (and them skylines weigh 8 tons )cheers nomad ps i have a bad feeling about the ford situation, hope we are not relying on one particular tuner of the month, are we ?

Or barely any different to a late spec Esc Cos, and most late EVOs n Scoobys (ie around 1450kg).

And Rocket Ronnie has won the last 2 years with "only" around 750bhp...

Errrr maybe it might have something to do with the fact the cars are using AUTRONIC ECUs and Mark is the UKs official dealer !!!!!!

In the same way that if a ford wanted to convert to HKS FconV they would have to take it to an official HKS dealer .

Its got fuck all to do with being the best , a lot of the time you have to take it to whoever has the software to map it
And if My car ran Autronic then I would want Mark to map it because hes experienced with the software but Im not running Autronic

Ima-Racing500,
ROFL.....@ the need for NOS!!!
rocket ronnie is using nos this year as well!

the way i see it the cossies direct competition are the evos,scoobys,gtir etc.

stuff like skylines have bigger cc's and an extra 2 cylinders so why bother comparing them to a cossie

Exactly, spot on, but thing is, its often the cossie owers who are the ones comparing em to GTRs.

I think theres some GTSTs running this year too so theres some that can be spanked no problem
